Surinder Sunar Eliminated; Bubble Bursts!

A short-stacked Surinder Sunar found his last chips in the middle holding pocket jacks against the {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} of Ricardo Sousa, who had him covered.

In a classic race, the entire room anxiously watched as the flop came Q-4-A to give Sousa the lead with his pair of queens as a cheer went up around the room in anticipation of the short stack's elimination. The turn brought a nine and Sunar was left needing one of the two remaining jacks to survive. However the river delivered a six and the room full of 80 delighted players went to the dinner break 17,000 Euros richer, while sadly Surinder Sunar "takes one for the team" as he departs the tournament floor without much of an appetite.
